"To attack poverty by preaching voluntary poverty seems like madness....To be profligate in our love and generosity, spontaneous, to cut all the red tape of bureaucracy! ... To live with generosity in times of crisis is only common sense. In the time of earthquake, flood, fire, people give recklessly; even governments do this."

Get out of the Alamo

Well, France and Germany are telling their people to get out. No surprise there. While Russia is telling its people to get out. Hmm.

But more importantly are all those "support troops" from countries like the Phillipines which are now considering pulling out.

If things are going so swell in Iraq, why the hell is everybody going home? I just picture Bush standing alone with a shovel and pail on some beach looking out to a balck ocean. Meanwhile everyone else has packed up because of a coming hurricane. "It's not that bad, just a little wind."
